Noise Insulaon:
The Nanoxia Deep Silence 3 has been developed with the aim to oer the buyer a low-noise
case, while at the same me allowing for extremely low system temperatures. The sound
insulaon design of the Deep Silence 3 is based on mulple interacng design elements:
The most important part is the large scale lining of the case with sound-absorbing insulaon
materials. These materials are manufactured specically to meet the requirements of the
developers of the Nanoxia Deep Silence case series and act equally against airborne sound and
structure-borne noise.
The removable Nanoxia VentCovers mask the 120/140 mm fan holes in the case top. They
allow the user to choose between the least possible noise and improved case venlaon.
Another design element for opmum sound insulaon is the use of two sound-insulated front
doors. The doors are equipped with sound-absorbing foam. Hard drives and power supply are
also decoupled mounted. The whole concept of sound proong of the Deep Silence 3 meets
the highest expectaons.
Venlaon System:
The Nanoxia Deep Silence 3 has an integrated venlaon system consisng of three 120 mm
Deep Silence fans and a built-in 2-channel fan controller. A total of up to six fans can be mounted.
The Deep Silence axial ow fans have been specically opmised for very quiet operaon. The
range of fan speeds and controls was designed to enable each user to adjust the case
venlaon to their own needs.
